Afternoon Delight

The moment that I saw itA grin lit up my face It was as ifAcross the milesI felt your warm embrace

How odd and lovelyTo receiveSome mail that’s not a bill

What joy it sparkedAt long day’s endTo garner such a thrill!

Encased in thick cream envelopeWith three stamps on its frontSmiling at the taped-down flapI opened it at once

So sweet to see you write my name!The words danced in my headYou speak to me through lines and curvesHow much I love your alphabet!

I read it throughAnd then againBut still, I was not done

I held it longerThankfullyAnd thinking of our love

What delightArriving homeTo a gift such as this!

As though midst just some average dayI’m bedazzled by a passioned kiss.
